Chapter 281 Money is not a problem

Probably because of being poked into a weakness, Xu Ci, who was always good-tempered, also had a bit of sullen expression on his face. He suppressed those unhappy feelings in his heart, looked at Hua Yichao in front of him, and finally couldn't help but said, " May I ask Lord Hou, what crime have I committed?"

He could feel the hostility coming from Hua Yichao, but he didn't know where the hostility came from.

Hua Yichao looked at Xu Ci with slightly raised eyebrows, and the two pairs of eyes collided in the air, and the atmosphere was a little tense.

Hua Yichao suddenly withdrew his gaze, raised his hand and rubbed between his brows.As far as the facial features and outline of the person in front of him are concerned, the naked eye does look similar to that person, but when he opens his mouth, the demeanor and momentum of the words are far behind.

At least that person can make him half dead with a few words in a flat manner.

The next moment, Hua Yi hooked the corner of his lips, but smiled first, and he snorted noncommittally, "What?"

Xu Ci took a deep breath, the sense of oppression and self-cultivation brought by his class deeply suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and his tone softened a bit, "I don't understand, Lord Hou came today, like They're here to interrogate criminals."

He didn't use a questioning tone, he was a little angry, but he wasn't stupid enough to forget who the person in front of him was.

Zhou Rao's Jiangyin Marquis.A man who holds military power and is decisive in killing and killing, should have more lives in his hands than he knows.

The identities and status gaps between them are too great, Hua Yizhao's ability to quietly make him disappear from this world is an existence that he can't afford to provoke in his life.

Hua Yichao let out an "oh", refraining from the tough voice just now, his attitude at this time seemed a little careless, and he said lightly: "I was a little confused just now, but it has been resolved now, it's not important anymore."

For his questioning behavior just now, Hua Yichao didn't even bother to explain half a sentence.He was born with status and respect, and he was used to being admired by others. He didn't have the habit of explaining things to others.

After a pause, Hua Yichao returned to the subject. He glanced at the man in front of him with an extraordinary skin, frowned, and finally said, "How long have you been in here?"

Day in and day out in the darkened room, Xu Ci didn't have a clear sense of time. He thought about it and reported a roughly estimated number of days.

Days that can be counted on two hands.In such a short time, it will not be immersed in the darkness here.

Hua Yichao also has a count in his heart.He said bluntly, "I can redeem you...Of course, I don't do charity. Since you are that girl's husband, please continue to teach her."

"I... I may not be able to teach her anything..." Xu Ci opened his mouth and said with some difficulty.

Xu Ci wanted to explain.He heard Hua Yichao's kindness, and this seemingly exchanging behavior saved him enough face, but he had seen Hua Ru's riding and shooting before, such a proficient skill was far from requiring him to teach, besides, Hua Ru I want to find a martial arts master, what kind of one can't find it?His kung fu is basically going to the class to make an axe.

"It doesn't matter what to teach." Hua Yizhao obviously didn't care about this.

Where would the Hua family lack any personal education?He was just entrusted by others to be loyal, and he charged some interest by the way.

If you really want to talk about selfishness, Hua Yizhao has a little bit of that.He felt that no one would like a gentleman who lectured him all kinds of things every day. When Xu Ci lingered in front of her for a while with this face on his face, she might get annoyed with this face.

Thinking of this, Hua Yichao's eyebrows stretched even more.He asked the business directly, "May I ask, how much money did the bustard spend?"

His words were not arrogant, but they still made Xu Ci feel a little embarrassed.

After a pause, Xu Ci said, "500 taels."

"500 taels?" Hua Yichao repeated the number.

Wenxiu didn't even need to look at the inaudible sigh in that tone, he could imagine how inconceivable and pitiful the other party was at the moment.

If it weren't for self-cultivation, the other party would probably spit out a sigh of "500 taels".

But 500 taels is already a sky-high price for his family.

"If Lord Hou is going to find the madam, I'm afraid it will be difficult to settle the matter with 500 taels." Xu Ci slowly lowered his eyelashes, concealing his inner unease, and said lightly.

The principle of "purchase price" and "selling price" can be spent so long that you don't understand it. Asking these is also to have an idea in your heart and facilitate negotiations.

He is rich, but he is not a bully who is exploited by others.

Hua Yichao went out to find the madam, and asked the price directly, "1000 taels."

It didn't take long for the talent to come, and he didn't spend any hard work, time and money in the museum. He directly doubled the price, which was not a lot.

But the madam shook her head, "It's not that the servant wants to displease Lord Hou, it's just the rules..."

Hua Yichao didn't talk nonsense, "2000 taels."

The madam took a breath, "Master Hou misunderstood, money is not a problem."

Hua Yichao raised her eyes, said without saying a single word, "5000 taels."

The madam, "..."

It doubled tenfold in an instant.

She was a little moved, but the rules in the museum must not be broken, otherwise if there is one today, there will be two tomorrow.

The madam gritted her teeth and shook her head, reluctantly rejecting Hua Yichao's act of redeeming her.

Hua Yichao sneered, and stopped raising the price silently, "5000 taels is a lot, I'm willing to pay the money, but don't take me for a fool, madam."

The bustard looked at the noble young master in front of her, and shook her head again and again, "Master Hou, it's not that the servant wants to raise the price, it's just that the rules in the restaurant can't be broken."

Hua Yichao said bluntly, "Rules are dead, but people are alive. If you get the deed of prostitution, you will definitely have money."

The bustard looked a little hesitant.

"No matter what, I must be human, and I don't eat toasts, maybe the madam prefers to drink fines?"

Bustard: "...?"

How dare she speak.

After struggling for a while, the madam finally let go and said, "...the Marquis can be taken away for the time being, but the slave's family cannot give it to the Marquis for the time being, and the details will be dealt with after the slave's family asks the higher-ups."

This was the best compromise she could make.

"Yes." Hua Yichao let go, and then took him back to the Hou Mansion, called the housekeeper to make arrangements, and then left him alone.

The butler meticulously guided people to familiarize themselves with the mansion and arranged for them to live.

The pavilions, terraces and waterside pavilions of the Hua family, every plant and tree reveals the background of the aristocratic family, and all the servants walking in the mansion are well-behaved, and Xu Ci always has a feeling of difficulty walking in it.

He had lived in a dark place for too long, once he came into such bright sunlight, he even forgot how to breathe.

Ru Huahua, who had just finished feeding the grass, got the news, trotted to the front yard to look for someone, and shouted from a distance, "Mr. Xu!"

There was surprise in her voice, and her smile shone brightly under the sun.

Looking at the people rushing towards him, Xu Ci suddenly understood Hua Yichao's mood.

If he had such a younger sister, he would also be willing to spend thousands of dollars to ransom her with a smile.
